If the first pref entry in the SharedPrefMap array had mIsSkippedByIteration flag set it would have been returned and as such exposed to the user.
We don't want that.

This allows for an entry to not show in about:config.
This will be used to store Once StaticPrefs once they become immutable.

For memory efficiency in content processes, we need to be able to store
changed preferences in a separate dynamic hashtable when their values don't
match the snapshot values.
That makes iteration over the full set of preferences somewhat more
complicated, since not only do we need to iterate over two tables, but we also
need to ignore preferences in the snapshot table if they also exist in the
dynamic hashtable.
This patch solves that problem by adding an iterator helper which iterates
over values in both tables, and skips values in the static table if they also
exist in the dynamic table.
In order to support completely deleting preferences that exist in the base
table, it also ignores all dynamic entries with the None type, so that they
can completely mask deleted base table values.

This is based on the SharedStringMap that's currently used for shared memory
string bundles.
When the parent process is ready to launch its first content process, it
creates a snapshot of the current state of the preference database, maps that
as read-only, and shares it with each content process. Look-ups in the
snapshotted map are done entirely using data in the shared memory region. It
doesn't require any additional per-process state data.
